"You're in your rank because you belong there"

The most irritating statement known to a summoner, next to gg ez. So I'm on a 6 Ranked lose streak, that of which only one game was my fault we lost. 2 games were afks , 3 games were extreme feeders, and one was my fault because I didn't study the most recent ADC builds (also had a malz support that didn't first item Rylais but we will say it was my fault). I almost feel as if you have to play these champions in order to even climb:

Last night I was at Silver IV 80 LP and now I'm In Silver V 58 LP . I Try sooo Fucking hard at this game and it takes soo long to climb but, it's soo easy to fall. Most of you in higher Elo's will probably say something like "well you just aren't jungling right" There are things in lower elo's you CAN NOT CONTROL. I guess I'm just getting too old for League.

Better than me who went silver 1 100Lp and got "promoted" into bronze 1 after a near 20 loss streak last season. I remember even getting chat banned trying to prevent my allies going near the enemy red buff around 30 mins. They seemed to be always get stuck in some tractor beam from some goddam space station that averted my attention.

Your post gets downvotes because your stubborn a$$ cant get over the fact that you belong at the rAnk you are at. Do you think people climb by getting lucky? Thry have the same amount of troll/afk/feeders as you do.

Assuming you are not one of those troll/feeders. Your team has a 4 potential feeder while the emeny team has 5 so the odds are in your favor.

Stay bad my friend.

Then climb. I was going to say a handful of games dont matter, variance is variance but you've played a hundred and fifty games in silver.

You belong there. Get over yourself.

Being in 3 seasons silver with over 3 kda and around 60% winrate and still failing to get gold is a sort of acomplishment really.

its not like playing more games in at a certain rank means that the afks and surrendering teammates from every other games suddenly dissappear. Ranking up is a great deal of luck. of all the people you could get matched to play with what are the chances that you end up with the people who surrender when the game gets hard and it happens every other game as more games this season seem like they have ended in one teams surrendering than the game just ending and even then when the surrender fails that doesnt account for the people who stop playing from the first surrender vote or actively ks their allies and deprive them of gold

that's quite a big list tbh... but ok I'll bite.

the statement of you belonging to your rank is mostly a generalization, because while afks, ragers and feeders do appear in our games, the % of games where they pull you down is small, yes you did have 5 games in a row (I think?) with these occurrences and then the occasional that's actually your fault for a total of 6 lost games but think, you have more games where your team cooperates than these, it just so feels incredibly hard to climb RIGHT NOW because you have a 6 game losing streak and are desperate to stop going down.

Consider also that playing optimal champions IS what you do on ranked (even if I don't do it myself) since ranked IS serious play, this isn't a game mode where you go and have fun, this is a game mode where you actually try to win by any mean necessary, heck if you could go and unplug your enemy's pc, you'd do it, then why wouldn't you pick meta champions?

and in the case you don't pick meta champions then you understand that it IS YOUR FAULT because you don't wanna do what it takes to win with what is proven optimal and if you don't accept it that's a lot your problem, the people who does research and pick what is strong and can make them work are the ones climbing, respect that.

Implying Evelynn is easy LP?

Ahahahahahaha, be sure to tell me that again after you go up against Khazix Nocturne LeeSin Hecarim as enemy jungler.

I guess I'm just getting too old for League.

Replace "old" with "awful" and you have a point.

And of course my post gets down voted, My posts always get down voted . I've never liked people on the Forums/Boards of any game. They're all a bunch of dicks and Know it Alls. Why can't people ever give a emotionless or even better yet a Heartfelt solution to my problems when I make posts? I almost think "Boards" is the most toxic place in League.

You won't get upvotes for bashing us.

You will get out of silver if you deserve to do so, afkers or not.

We don't get "Lucky" and climb that way. We're BETTER.

Down Vote my Post some more, I don't like you either.

Really? because I climbed to plat 5 pretty easily as Vlad, arguably one of the worst champs in the game right now.

That was only ~30 or 40 games, btw. I probably could have gone a lot higher, considering I was skipping tiers every promo due to how consistently I won.

You can't argue that my MMR gave me an advantage in climbing either.

I played on a friend's account that's in bronze. ~80%+ win rate over 50 games.

Played on another friend's account in silver. ~75% win rate over 50 games.

Climbed from b5 to Low plat in s4 by playing basicly only Zac He wasnt even good at that time i Just played him cause I Loved his /Joke If you understand the basics of the game you can get plat with ease. Also about Fredersdorf/afks, you have 4 chances of Troll/feed/afk teammembers while Tiere are 5 chances in the enemy team, so yeah that's nothing to complain about you just remember the negativ things and Not the free wins you get from enemys
